I don't actually agree with the no-tip system, however I think the US system could be reigned back a little, more in line with what Aqua described as the Australian system. One of the issues with tipping making up the bulk of a salary is that it's not just the server who determines the tip, it's also the quality of the food, the lighting of the place, etc. Some establishments will pool the tips, but this isn't the case everywhere.

I think the government should stay the hell out of it because it is not broken and servers make a lot more money than most people working at that level.

A good friend had a son who just really tanked in school this past semester. He told his son that the gravy train is over - no rent money, no utility money, no grocery money - if you want to live away from home, do it on your own. Your days of the frat house, the beer keg and the tail chasing are over, at least on daddy's dime.

Kid went to work waiting tables in Nachitoches at one of the nicer restaurants. He makes $2/hr but he's averaging $150/day because of his tips.

But the good news is that he's become aware of what it takes to make that money and how fast it leaves your pocket when the bills come due. He may make it out of school, yet.

I agree with that.

I went out to a favorite watering hole tonight (owned by Senator Rob Portman, btw) and asked my favorite server/bartender about this. She said 'Not no, but HELL no.".
